Bariatric surgery
#3
RE: Bariatric surgery
I have attended some of the sessions to support a family member who is preparing for gastric bypass.  From what I gather, your best chance of success is to continue to follow up with specialists after the procedure.  The success rate is supposed to be quite good. I would get the procedure done as well, except my insurance does not cover any form of weight loss treatment.

@Whateverist - from what I understand, post procedure, the idea is to eat a number (e.g. 6) small meals throughout the day, eat only until you feel full (which I suppose is fast with a walnut-sized stomach), and avoid carbs. Supplements are also recommended.
